  • McCain throws Belarus under the bus.

    “McCain joked that Gramm would be his ambassador to the outlaw republic of Belarus” I’m sure I’m not the only one who has noticed that, with decades of over-the-top legal and illegal immigration, America is becoming so balkanized that we now have a “Little” for everyone. By that I mean if there were an army crackdown on the good people of, ...

  • New Quinnipiac poll shows Obama with sizable lead

    Barack Obama’s overall lead against John McCain is 50 - 41 percent in the latest Quinnipiac poll. The majority of his support is among women (55 - 36%) and young voters (63-31%), with unanimous numbers from blacks (94 – 1%). The presumed Democratic presidential candidate also racks up an impressive lead in purple and swing states (50 – 39%), of ...

  • Re: Read Between the Lines: FISA Gets Amended In 2009.

    I'd like to believe the assertion that FISA will be amended next year and that Obama will revert to his previously stated positions once elected... but if you're going to extend to him that generosity, don't you have to do the same for McCain? Maybe everything we have seen of McCain since 2000 has been his politically-expedient shifting of ...

  • Sorry, but I don't agree

    Donna: We don't talk about the morality of universal health care, quality education for all, or a living wage. More importantly, we don't even talk about how they benefit all Americans, not just the working poor. As a friend says, ''You have to meet people where they are and bring them along.'' We refuse to do that. Obama hasn't done it and he ...

  • I Liked Ike -- Now I Like Mike - HUCKABEE, that is

    I liked everything I heard about Mike Huckabee, even before he started running in earnest for his Party's Nomination to be our next U.S. President. The more I learned about Mike Huckabee, the better I liked his candidacy. Further, he is a very well-spoken and persuasive guy, with that down-to-Earth Midwestern style I always liked about ...

  • Clark is a disgrace to his uniform!

    Don't you people who are defending Clark know what he has done? Wesley Clark lead the attack on Waco and ordered the slaughter of many American men, women and even children. He is a Clinton crony and that is why he was running for POTUS in 04. Men like this have NO right to disgrace or downplay the service of a man who went into a Democrat ...

  • The Swiftboater on the Truthiness Squad

    Interesting that Mr. Beam fails to mention one of the more telling things about McCain's Truthiness Squad: Its most outspoken member is a veteran of the Swift Boat smear campaign against John Kerry, who went on to found his own attack group, which used SBVT money to fund harrassment suits against Kerry and his supporters. Yep, Bud Day played a ...

  • poor quoting

    As much of a fan as I am of Mr. Kaplan's writing, I think he does the issue a disservice when quoting General Clark as so... ''He hasn't held executive responsibility. … I don't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president.'' The ellipses, so conveniently placed, whitewash over the fact that it was ...

  • Bush and McCain

    I thought the Republicans settled the question of war records when Bush's campaign staff savaged McCain

  • Re: What difference will it make?

    kgsbca: So the politicians should stay out of this, if they know what is good for the US economy. They probably won't, though, for if the company is acquired by a foreign owner, they will lose a valuable source of local campaign contributions, and we know that is the most important issue for politicians. No one yet seems to have noticed ...
